Constitut. Code
Instructional. Ratiocinative
Art. III. Why not in the hands of the Executive Chief.
Answer. Reasons.
1. For a reason similar to that which has place the 2d second of the Reasons applying as above to the
situation of the Constitutive. Not equally intense with eq any such intensity can the attention
of the Executive Chief – a person whose will is not the
will to which it appertains to the functionary in question to
give execution and effect – be expected to apply to the choice
of the person by whom such execution and effect is to be given
to the will of the Legislative, as that with which the Legislative
itself may naturally be expected to apply itself to that
same subject.
2. So great is the g aggregate quantity of power proposed
to be placed in the hands of the Executive Chief by that which
it is proposed to be given to him in relation to the several
other Sub Departments Departments of the Executive that unless some
special and preponderant reason were afforded for the attaching
to the office this power considered in itself, the mere consideration
of the danger from excess of power in the same hands
would suffice to indicate different in preference hands any other than those
of the Legislature Executive Chief. In pursuit of a conjunct
sinister interest possessed by them in common, the two functionaries
– the Executive Chief and his locatee the supposed nominee the Justice Minister
might concurr in the commission of depredation or
oppression in other shapes to the prejudice of the people
in an immediate way, or in an unimmediate way,
by opposition to and obstruction instead of obsequiousness to the declared will
of the immediate creatures of the Constitutive body – the Legislative.
